What you need
- 3 Tbsp wasabi mustard
- 3 Tbsp soy sauce
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup black sesame seeds
- 2 pounds fresh ahi tuna steaks
- 2-3 tbsp grapeseed oil
How to do it
- In a small pot, combine the wasabi mustard, soy sauce and butter and simmer until the butter melts.
- Whisk the mixture until it is smooth and thick. Set aside.
- Place the sesame seeds in a shallow dish.
- Dredge both sides of the tuna into the seeds and press firmly, so the seeds adhere to the tuna.
- Heat a nonstick fry pan to medium high and add the oil.
- Sear the fish for about 2 minutes each side, or until it is cooked to your desired taste.
